Here is another one from the Big Train comedy show, this time it is a cartoon sketch that ran throughout the series if I remember rightly.

This is sheer genius, the Staring Final.

Here’s a great classic from Monty Python, the brilliant Bicycle Repairman. See how Bicycle Repairman fixes the bicycle with his bare hands and how he uses a spanner to tighten the nuts! Brilliant stuff.
